Hey! Did you guys hear that I turned two?!
I know what you're thinking... You're thinking, Teek, will you please show us more of your face? Because you are just too adorable.
So here's me looking excited:
And my 'Deer in Headlights' impression:
This is how I fake smile:
And how I look amused.
But back to my birthday. It was mostly about the cake for me. Mom let me lick the spatula --
And then she threw a bunch of sprinkles and Oreos on a box cake. I overhead her saying that she didn't much care to invest a lot of time into my cake because I wouldn't 'appreciate' it...
But, I don't know about that. I sure appreciated the whole thing as it was swirling around in my mouth.
The night also included presents, and push-ups, and talking to Grandma and Grandpa on the phone.
Yeah, I said push-ups... why? I'm pretty good at them actually. And I'm just going to get better as time goes on. I can almost win when mom and I fight over whether or not I have to sit in the shopping cart, or into the carseat, or into the stroller, or into the crib, or anywhere else that straps or traps me in. A few more push-ups and I just might have free reign of this whole household...
Terrible twos? Please. I've been playing the game for a while now. And I'm already a pro.
Happy Birthday to me!
When Caleb turned two, I worried about the twos. Then I read on baby center or somewhere, that the year between one and two can actually be more of a challenge for kids, because they just can't communicate all those things they need to tell us and it's so frustrating. Somehow, it was encouraging to read that I had already survived the "harder" year (maybe?) But, I don't know. My current two-year-old exhausts me, and it certainly isn't for lack of communication! I find myself answering "Why?" questions ALL THE TIME! And I wonder if this little girl is more challenging at two, or if I've just forgotten what two year olds are like in the last two years....anyway Happy birthday to your darling little boy!
